Chanel, Zara, Louboutin, Stuart Weitzman, Louis Vuitton – all the cool kids are doing it – designing metal tipped shoes.  Flats, pumps, mules, boots, ballerina flats, all with a shiny metal toe cap.   Pastels, black, patent, no prejudice being shown.

All of a sudden steel toe is not a description reserved for construction boots!

Interestingly, some of these are now SERIOUSLY on sale so embarking into the steel toe arena is suddenly a little easier – Zara & Stuart Weitzman (just click on the blue link!).

reversecommuter has called The Home Depot “the orange store” for years…and now I have the perfect shoe to wear there!    (for non-North American readers, it is a home renovation store that sells lumber, hammers, tools, and other such stuff that reversecommuter truly has no business being near!).
